If (A=2^4\times3^2\times5) and (B=2^4\times3^2\times5\times11), which statement about (A) and (B) is correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The HCF will be (A)
Step 1: (B=A\times11), so (A) exactly divides (B). Step 2: When one number divides the other exactly, the smaller number is the HCF. Step 3: Identifying a multiple relation saves time.
